Progress made this week:
- I kept getting plugin error messages from the terminal, and realized that I needed to install additional libraries httplib, simplejson, and oauth. After installation, the plugin errors disappeared, but for some reason the talk editor can't be opened correctly using "python -m freeseer talk". Also, the displayed fields in the recording UI are not correct
- After getting help on the IRC, I installed Linux Ubuntu on VMware workstation8, then re-installed the Freeseer dependencies on that virtual machine
- The talk editor worked fine on Linux, but the recording UI was still not working well. So I opened issues #453 and #454
- I decided on the issue that I would like to work on, and started writing the project proposal
- I looked at some of the codes to get a sense of where I would be changing things.
- Get approval from mentors on doing #440: https://github.com/Freeseer/freeseer/issues/440
- Finish rough copy of project proposal
- Become familiar with the existing code and start thinking of ways to implement this new feature
- I'm not sure where I should start coding. I only have the general idea that the feature should probably be added somewhere in the /frontend/record files. I think looking at the code in more detail would be helpful in understanding how the whole thing fits together
- #440 mentions that Freeseer stores metadata about when the presentation starts/ends, but I haven't been able to find the ending time
